Lalat King

The com labs today are a flurry of activity. Too many people fighting for too few pcs. Btw, imu is spending lots of cash on upgrading furniture. i wish they'd also use some cash to have more pcs.

since i've had 3 days of holiday, i managed to finally read Lord of The Flies. Yes, after a long, long while i mustered the excitement to read it.And the funny thing is that after i read it, there was the movie being shown on astro. Deja Vu indeed. Long ago a friend of mine encouraged me to read it. she said it was one of her favorite books. i myself was wondering how could someone love a book with such a disgusting title?? But after i watched battle royale, and the back of the dvd said its worse than the said book, i decided to check it out.

For a supposedly sec school literature book,i find it to be very deep. There are so many things that the author conveys. I do understand piggy's feelings, and how just because you're different people pick on you. The strained relationship between jack and ralph can also be seen in the adult world. One is good, the other is a hellraiser. It also reminds me of the natives in Papua new Guinea. I think, this is how civilization is years ago, before modern society stepped in. its also scary to think that those boys didn't even give a thought of being saved;instead they were just concerned about surviving and become the ultimate group. And of the natives in papua, they still practice cannibalism, and i really wonder how they feel like eating their own species.it is now also the most dangerous place to live on earth, because of the total lack of rules on the island.

The part where they killed simon was disgusting, and it really made me hate jack even more. On the whole, its a very good read, and i'm glad i read it at this age. if i were to read it when i was younger, i wouldn't appreciate it.
